Description

Light emitting diode driving circuit
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a light emitting diode driving circuit, and more particularly, to a light emitting diode driving circuit with a sensing circuit for dynamically detecting a status of a light emitting diode in a light emitting region of the light emitting diode.
Background
In the led display panel, a related driving circuit is designed to drive the leds in each pixel, but when the panel driving circuit is subjected to a temperature change, the forward voltage (forward voltage) will also change, which will affect the passing current and the operation efficiency. When the above-mentioned influence occurs, the light emitting effect of the light emitting diode is also affected, so that the display effect of the whole display picture is affected.
Aiming at the influence caused by temperature change, the display device of the light-emitting diode can correspondingly compensate according to the change, so that the driving voltage and the current passing through the light-emitting diode can reach the required standard, and the light-emitting result of each pixel can meet the expectations. However, in order to perform the corresponding compensation, the actual operation state of the light emitting diode and the driving circuit thereof must be controlled to provide the corresponding compensation method. However, when the display panel displays a screen, the conventional driving circuit cannot dynamically detect the light emitting diode to understand the actual operation state, and it is difficult to properly compensate for the operation of the light emitting section, which still has a considerable problem in displaying the screen.

In the present embodiment, the led driving circuit 20 is a sixteen-transistor three-capacitor (16T 3C) driving circuit structure, the first pulse circuit DB1 is a pulse amplitude modulation circuit, and the second pulse circuit DB2 is a pulse width modulation circuit. The following embodiments will take the present embodiment as an example to describe each detection section in which the light emitting diode LED performs the sensing operation.
Fig. 5A to 5C are schematic diagrams illustrating a sensing operation of the led driving circuit according to an embodiment of the invention. Fig. 5A is a schematic diagram of a static detection zone, fig. 5B is a schematic diagram of a light-emitting zone, and fig. 5C is a schematic diagram of a dynamic detection zone according to an embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 5A, when the light emitting diode LED has not yet operated for light emission, the light emitting diode driving circuit 20 may perform a static detection, and in a static detection interval, the first light emitting signal source EM1, the first pulse wave circuit DB1 and the first sensing gate signal line SG1 respectively transmit control signals to turn on the first light emitting control transistor TEM1, the first driving transistor TD1 and the first sensing transistor TS1, and the second light emitting signal source EM2, the second pulse wave circuit DB2 and the second sensing gate signal line SG2 respectively turn off the second light emitting control transistor TEM2, the second driving transistor TD2 and the second sensing transistor TS 2. At this time, the current I1 flows from the first voltage source VDD to the first sensing signal source VS1 through the first light emitting control transistor TEM1, the first driving transistor TD1 and the first sensing transistor TS1, and by detecting the current I1 flowing through the first sensing transistor TS1, the current I1 can be statically detected before the light emitting diode LED is turned on, and is compensated according to the actual detection result, so that when the light emitting diode LED starts to operate, the compensated current can make the light emitting diode LED achieve the required light emitting effect.
The static detection interval is a time when the LED is not formally turned on, and is mainly a pre-detection time before the LED driving circuit 20 is started, and the static detection is not performed before the frame of each display. Therefore, when the LED is in the display frame driving state of the display screen, the LED driving circuit 20 drives the LED to emit light and enters the light emitting section of each display screen, and in order to detect the amount of electricity actually passing through the LED during the light emitting section, and further compensate, it is necessary to perform dynamic detection during the light emitting period.
As shown in fig. 5B, when the light emitting diode LED starts to operate on the screen, the light emitting diode driving circuit 20 drives the light emitting diode LED to emit light, and in the light emitting section, the first light emitting signal source EM1 and the first pulse wave circuit DB1 transmit control signals to turn on the first light emitting control transistor TEM1 and the first driving transistor TD1, and the second light emitting signal source EM2 and the second pulse wave circuit DB2 transmit control signals to turn on the second light emitting control transistor TEM2 and the second driving transistor TD2, respectively. In the light emitting interval, the first sensing gate signal line SG1 turns off the first sensing transistor TS1, the second sensing gate signal line SG2 turns off the second sensing transistor TS2, and the current I2 flows from the first voltage source VDD to the second voltage source VSS through the first light emitting control transistor TEM1 and the first driving transistor TD1, and then flows along the light emitting diode LED, the second driving transistor TD2 and the second light emitting control transistor TEM2. The light emission control transistor LED is turned on by the passing current I2, and at this time, the current I2 does not flow to the sensing circuit because the first sensing transistor TS1 and the second sensing transistor TS2 are turned off.
In the light emitting interval, the first light emitting signal source EM1 and the second light emitting signal source EM2 respectively turn on the first light emitting control transistor TEM1 and the second light emitting control transistor TEM2 to make the current I2 pass, the pulse amplitude modulation circuit of the first pulse wave circuit DB1 controls the magnitude of the current I2 by driving the first driving transistor TD1, and the pulse width modulation circuit of the second pulse wave circuit DB2 controls the turn-on time by controlling the second driving transistor TD2 to further control the brightness of the light emitting control transistor LED, so as to achieve the desired display effect.
The LED driving circuit 20 may affect the actual light emitting state of the LED due to the process of the device itself, the circuit design, or the external environment, so that the LED driving circuit 20 dynamically detects the state of the LED during the light emitting interval to further compensate for the difference. As shown in fig. 5C, when the light emitting diode LED performs the light emitting operation, the light emitting diode driving circuit 20 can perform dynamic detection at the same time, and in the dynamic detection interval, the first light emitting signal source EM1 and the second light emitting signal source EM2 turn off the first light emitting control transistor TEM1 and the second light emitting control transistor TEM2, respectively, and the second pulse wave circuit DB2 also turns off the second driving transistor TD2. The first sensing gate signal line SG1 of the sensing circuit SB controls the first sensing transistor TS1 to be turned on and the second sensing gate signal line SG2 controls the second sensing transistor TS2 to be turned on, and at this time, the current I3 flows from the first sensing signal source VS1 to the second sensing signal source VS2 through the first sensing transistor TS1, the light emitting diode LED and the second sensing transistor TS2, and by detecting the state of the current I3, the actual light emitting state of the light emitting diode LED is detected, and then necessary compensation is performed on the driving circuit to achieve the required light emitting display effect.
Fig. 6 is a schematic waveform diagram of a driving circuit of an led according to an embodiment of the invention. The display panel may include n rows of display pixels, each row of display pixels drives a plurality of leds in the row according to the scan signal, and the waveforms of the operation of the led driving circuit 20 of fig. 4 are shown.
Firstly, in a static detection interval, a first light emitting control transistor TEM1 and a first sensing transistor TS1 are turned on by a control signal transmitted by a first light emitting signal source EM1 and a first sensing gate signal line SG1, and a current flows through the first light emitting control transistor TEM1, the first driving transistor TD1 and the first sensing transistor TS1 from a first voltage source VDD, so that by detecting the current flowing through the first sensing transistor TS1, static detection can be performed before the light emitting diode LED is turned on, the actual driving state of the driving circuit is confirmed, and the detection result is compensated, so that when the light emitting diode LED starts to operate, the compensated driving circuit can enable the light emitting diode LED to achieve the required light emitting effect.
When the display panel starts to display a picture, the panel scans line by line to drive the light emitting diodes LED in each pixel row, and as shown in the figure, the reset signal line RES resets the second pulse wave circuit PB2, the start signal line VST transmits the start control signal, and the first pulse wave circuit DB1 and the second pulse wave circuit DB2 receive the drive control signal and the set signal line VSET transmits the set signal. Then, after the first light emitting signal source EM1 and the second light emitting signal source EM2 transmit the control signal to turn on the first light emitting control transistor TEM1 and the second light emitting control transistor TEM2, the current is LED to light each pixel in the n-th row of pixels. The scan signal line sweet controls the second pulse circuit PB2 to determine the time of the first Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) light emission, and then the setting signal transmitted by the next setting signal line VSET starts the second pulse width modulation light emission, and so on.
In the present embodiment, each frame includes three light emitting intervals controlled by pwm signals, but the disclosure is not limited thereto, and the light emitting intervals included in each frame can be adjusted according to the display requirement. In these light emitting intervals, the light emitting driving circuit 20 can perform dynamic detection, and after the light emitting interval of the third pulse width modulation signal, the first sensing gate signal line SG1 and the second sensing gate signal line SG2 simultaneously turn on the first sensing transistor TS1 and the second sensing transistor TS2, at this time, the first light emitting control transistor TEM1 and the second light emitting control transistor TEM2 are turned off, and the current flows from the first sensing signal source VS1 to the second sensing signal source VS2 through the first sensing transistor TS1, the light emitting diode LED and the second sensing transistor TS 2. By detecting the state of the passing current, the state of the actual passing electric quantity of the light emitting diode LED can be dynamically detected while the light emitting interval is operated, compensation is performed for the detection result, for example, when uniformity problems occur, the control table of pulse wave amplitude modulation is adjusted, or when the pixel is affected by temperature, the control signal of pulse wave amplitude modulation is adjusted to perform corresponding compensation, so that the whole display panel can meet the requirement of a display picture, and the display effect cannot be affected by the variations.
In contrast to the led driving circuit of the present disclosure, which can perform dynamic detection during a normal driving light-emitting period, the driving circuit can still detect an actual voltage state of the led during the light-emitting period, and can compensate for variations generated during the operation period in real time, thereby not affecting the quality of the display screen.
Please refer to fig. 7A to 7C, which are schematic diagrams of a dynamic detection interval according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 7A is a diagram illustrating a relationship between a dynamic detection interval and a frame according to an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 7B is a schematic diagram illustrating adjustment of the frame, and fig. 7C is a schematic diagram illustrating dispersion of the dynamic detection interval. As described in the foregoing embodiments, the dynamic detection section may perform the detection of the light emitting diode in the light emitting section, for example, the dynamic detection is performed after three light emitting sections of the pwm light emitting in the frame, but the detection section to perform the dynamic detection may be larger than the interval of the original light emitting section according to the number of the detection sections, so different detection modes may be used when performing the dynamic detection section, which are described as follows.
As shown in fig. 7A, the frame time of an original display frame of the led driving circuit includes three light emitting intervals of pwm light emission, and if dynamic detection is started after the third light emitting interval, the performed dynamic detection interval will exceed the original frame time to affect the display of the next display frame. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the dynamic detection section for dynamic detection occupies the light emitting section of the original third pwm light emission, and the original third light emitting time is used as the dynamic detection section for detecting the led status. Because the display result is affected by occupying the light-emitting interval, the detection mode is suitable for a specific detection frame. The number and sequence of occupied light-emitting intervals can be adjusted according to the requirement of dynamic detection, and is not limited to the third light-emitting interval in the embodiment.
As shown in fig. 7B, similar to the foregoing embodiment, the light emitting diode driving circuit includes a plurality of light emitting sections at the frame time of the display frame, and performing dynamic detection after the light emitting sections affects the display of the next display frame. Unlike the previous embodiment, the light emitting section is occupied in this embodiment. The LED driving circuit prolongs the frame time of the frame picture, so that the frame time is enough to finish the whole dynamic detection, namely, the frame time of the display picture is adjusted according to the dynamic detection interval. The detection mode is also suitable for specific detection frames, and the frame time is dynamically adjusted when the detection frames are executed to complete the operation of dynamic detection.
As shown in fig. 7C, the dynamically detected scans may be distributed among different display frames. Since the dynamic detection section required for completing the dynamic detection of the entire surface cannot be completed in the interval of the light emission section, the dynamic detection section is dispersed into different display frames. For example, dynamic scanning in the first frame time is started after the third light-emitting interval, the scanned pixel rows are only partial pixel rows, and dynamic scanning in the subsequent pixel rows is continued after the three light-emitting intervals in the second frame time are passed. The mode of dispersing dynamic scanning interval can maintain the original lighting interval and can not influence the display of normal display frames.
The foregoing is by way of example only and is not intended as limiting. Any equivalent modifications or variations to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention shall be included in the appended claims.
